Shri Lalitha Sahasranamam: Namam 616: Shri Ameya (ōṃ amēyāyai namaḥ)

The Goddess Divine Mother is not measurable by any means. 

Adiparashakti is the entire universe Herself; there is nothing with which She can be measured. Brahma, the ultimate universal creator under the Divine Mother’s instruction. For all universal beings, She is their body, mind and intelligence. With all these She is immeasurable “Ameya”. 

In general, any measuring instrument will measure things within its reach. The human senses and mind can measure only appropriate minor things. The Divine Mother is the originator of the universe, and She is beyond all these measuring instruments. She cannot be measured by any means available to mankind such as senses and mind. As such She is not measurable by any known means. She is rightly called “Ameya”, the immeasurable. 

Present-day science has not determined the extent and potentials of the universe. We cannot measure the “One” who is the cause of the cosmic bodies. She is therefore considered immeasurable. Linga Purana says, “In all the eight worlds, the Brahmanada (cosmas) starting with heaven or patala (the nether regions), whatever can be measured is” Uma”, Herself; The one who can measure is Her spouse  Mahesvara only.

                        The Divine Mother is not measure by any means

                     except by by Her spouse Lord Shiva
